um... help? Or not. Not sure.
So, on the subject of Sherlock Holmes I think it might be part of my, um, training messing with my social eye, but I don't see this relationship as clearly homoerotic as loudly co-dependent. Not that it bothers me either way, it's just. Why can't I pin it down as boy on boy as easily as everone else seems to be so merrily tagging it?
This is a personal issues, of course, I think it has to do with how in my personal experience, gay men aren't as overtly slashy as they seem to be read on tv and by fandom, but then again, it may also have something to do with the different culture I'm immersed in at the moment. Though that particular gap will have to be addressed later, when I have the patience for it.
So, what gives? What was your experience in this respect?
